What: We are excited to announce a very talented performer for
               our last meeting of the year!  Foster Brown will be our special
               guest this month!   

Although this is the day before Thanksgiving, it would be wonderful for moms and
kids to take a break in the morning before all the holiday hustle bustle begins to
enjoy this fun and educational concert.  We were very fortunate to book him this
year as he is in high demand.  His CD, "Foster Brown, Naturally" has received a
Parents' Choice Award, an honor bestowed upon only the very best material for
children.  His presentation for us will explore the life of pioneers and early
settlers who journey westward through the wilderness to settle Ohio.  Through songs
on various folk instruments (guitar, banjo, mandolin, fiddle, and Appalachian
dulcimer) he will sing folk songs that reveal the life of these hearty individuals
from serious ballads to silly nonsense tunes.  a brief history of the instruments
makes this particular program a fun, yet educational experience for all and it will
be a nice tie-in to Thanksgiving regarding the early settlers of this land. 

Some of  Foster's wonderful CD's will be available for purchase.  They would make a
nice addition to your child's' listening library.
